Here's another chapter. I am so sorry about the wait. I have a lot of stories on the go (hundreds) and I am always a bit nervous about posting anything and tend to get writers block once I do post something worrying if people will enjoy it. I will try to keep my posts more regular though. I make no promises, but I will attempt to. I hope you enjoy. Again, I do not own anything recognizable to the Harry Potter series. I don't have even 1% of the talent JK Rowling's does. Still, I hope you enjoy.

"Any sign of him," Remus asked the question that had been on all their minds since Arthur had returned from another search for his missing son. Two weeks he had been gone and it was clear that he did not want to be found.
Arthur shook his head, many felt for the normally happy man. He was angry and tired and there was nothing that anyone could do about it. Fred and George felt sick knowing they were involved in him taking off. Ron and Ginny were not at all bothered, they were more angry at the fact that they were grounded.
Mundungus Fletcher arrived and went straight to Arthur knowing he'd want the news the thief had. "I saw that boy of yours."
Everyone froze looking to him having not expected any news after two weeks, least of all from Fletcher, "Where, is he okay," Arthur demanded standing up quickly hoping against all odds his son was okay.
"Down in knock turn," Mundungus Fletcher stated, "Got into a fight with Greyback."
Everyone in the room paled at that, the werewolf was well known for being brutal and ruthless. To find out that someone they all knew was in a fight with the werewolf was horrifying, but none more so then to the Weasley family. "How bad is he hurt," Arthur demanded, "Where is he?"
"Left before I could grab him, almost too afraid to try, your sons a nasty fellow."
"Watch it," Fred growled, "What do you mean nasty, this is prefect Percy, he doesn't have a nasty bone in his body."
Mundungus cringed slightly under the glares, "he kicked greybacks arse, not just a little neither. Nearly killed 'im 'cept another werewolf came and jumped him from behind giving greyback a chance ta run. Cursed somethin' awful he did before he apparated away. He was comin' out of Black Haven bar."
Black haven bar was one the seedier bars in knockturn alley, known for housing a large number of halfbreeds and criminals often did business out of there. It was no place for any wizard let alone a light wizard who the darker families despised. "What would Percy be doing in knockturn, he knows that's practically a death sentence for a Weasley," Charlie demanded. Merlin, what was his brother thinking? He was going to get killed. The idea horrified him.
Arthur just swore something they never witnessed from him though it was a time of firsts for the man who was afraid to lose his son, "I need to go find hm."
"We can track his scent, if he's masking his apparition signature and his magic trail, he may not be tracking his scent. If he's hanging out in knockturn, he may be staying there and its close to the full moon," Remus stated. "I might be able to track him."
"I may as well, between the two of us, if he's in knock then we can find him," Sirius said knowing how freaked out the redhead was over his son. He could get that, he had not seen his goddaughter and it killed him not knowing where she was, but he had no way to track her. The least they could do was get the man's son back for him.
Arthur looked at them gratefully as they went to knockturn alley. It took them till late that night to find his scent which was mostly masked, and they made their way into the apartment area above the store.
